EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait depicts the renowned Scottish explorer, David Livingstone (1813-1873). Born in Scotland, Livingstone's insatiable curiosity and adventurous spirit led him to leave his mark on African history. In 1852, Livingstone made the groundbreaking discovery of the Victoria Falls on the Zambezi River. Five years later, in 1856, he reached the shores of the Indian Ocean, opening up new territories for exploration and trade. This portrait was published in the Spanish book "El Congo y la Creacion del Estado Independiente de este nombre. Historia de los Trabajos y Exploraciones Verificados" (The Congo and the Founding of its Free State. A Story of Work and Exploration), which was edited in Barcelona around 1890. Livingstone's image is captured in intricate detail, with his distinctive moustache, bow tie, and formal attire typical of the Victorian era. As a Congregationalist missionary and explorer, Livingstone's work was driven by both a desire to spread Christianity and to advance European colonialism. His accomplishments earned him the title of a national hero in both Scotland and Great Britain, and his legacy continues to be celebrated in the United Kingdom and beyond. This engraving offers a glimpse into the age of exploration, a time when European powers vied for control of African territories, and individuals like Livingstone played a pivotal role in shaping the continent's future. The portrait is a testament to Livingstone's courage, determination, and the enduring impact of European exploration on the world.
